Abstract

Acting and learning in unpredictable and volatile environments requires cognitive flexibility. However, the ability to flexibly adapt to the changing task environment can be reduced when people experience uncontrollability due to exposure to action – outcome non-contingency. In this research, we propose that flexible shifting of attention is affected by experiences of uncontrollability. In two studies, a lack of control was experimentally induced and subsequently cognitive flexibility was assessed either with a Wisconsin Card Sorting Task (Study 1) or a cognitive set-shifting paradigm (Study 2). Results showed a reduced tendency to flexibly shift attention and to overcome dominant response tendencies amongst participants who experienced uncontrollability. Modulation of the stability-flexibility balance by situationally induced experiences of uncontrollability is discussed.

个人控制与认知灵活性:不可控性会减少注意力的灵活转移吗?
在不可预测和多变的环境中行动和学习需要认知灵活性。然而,当人们在行动--结果非一致性中体验到不可控性时,灵活适应不断变化的任务环境的能力就会降低。在这项研究中,我们提出注意力的灵活转移会受到不可控性体验的影响。在两项研究中,我们在实验中诱发了不可控性,随后通过威斯康星卡片分类任务(研究 1)或认知集转移范式(研究 2)对认知灵活性进行了评估。结果显示,经历过不可控性的参与者在灵活转移注意力和克服主导反应倾向方面的能力有所下降。本文讨论了情景诱发的不可控性体验对稳定性-灵活性平衡的调节作用。

期刊介绍: Learning and Motivation features original experimental research devoted to the analysis of basic phenomena and mechanisms of learning, memory, and motivation. These studies, involving either animal or human subjects, examine behavioral, biological, and evolutionary influences on the learning and motivation processes, and often report on an integrated series of experiments that advance knowledge in this field. Theoretical papers and shorter reports are also considered.
